Our Team

We are a team of sixteen seniors from Shanghai High School International Division. Though we all live in Shanghai, China, we represent a diverse group of students of from all around the globe: US, Canada, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and Singapore. With a common interest in Biology, each of us have our individual quirks and personalities, skillsets and interests, that define how we cooperate and work as a team.

Chang WeiTse

Year: Senior
Favorite iGEM moment:

Younji Jung

Year: Senior
The only Korean in Team SHSID_China, Younji is the team hoodie, logo, flag, and banner designer, photographer, video editor, online article editor/writer, social media manager and sometimes even a participant in laboratory work. Younji has multiple interests including visual design, video editing, bird photography, calligraphy, Korean hip hop, soil science, neuroscience, Deconstructionism, etc. Even outside of iGEM, Younji is a passionate investigator in Biology who dreams of devoting her whole life in Medicine practicing neurosurgery and is currently taking concrete steps to realize her goals.
Favorite iGEM moment: Posting online articles on social media super productively

Archie Jiang

Year: Senior
I am a Canadian citizen who has been living at Shanghai for pretty much my whole life. I enjoy playing badminton, exploring video games, and above all, birdwatching. In this iGEM team, I am mainly responsible for programming and designing the wiki pages that you are browsing right now.
Favorite iGEM moment: Seeing the main page function correctly after a hard night's work with Sophie [our designer]

Sophie Li

Year: Senior
If it's free time and I'm not drawing, you can bet I'm either at the Biology lab, writing for a magazine, volunteering somewhere across the city, surfing Youtube, or trying to destroy my tongue with some classic Szechuanese spice. Or, lamenting the fact that I still haven't found time to watch Infinity War.
Favorite iGEM moment: Holding an eppendorf tube full of poison, like a boss... except it probably looked more epic in my mind.

Yasuhiko Komatsu

Year: Senior
I like experiencing things firsthand and that also applies to my favorite subject biology. Experiencing biology firsthand does not necessarily mean staying for hours in the lab - I go to local shores and mountains dozens of kilometers away from urban Shanghai to watch birds, insects, mammals, amphibians, and other overlooked compoments of our local ecosystem.
Favorite iGEM moment: The moment I ejected a pipette tip for the first time. Very few things can feel more satisfying.

Hsin-Yu Lo

Year: Senior
I’m Claire, a girl who was born in Taiwan but moved to Shanghai at the age of 4. I found myself labelled with a couple of tags: swimmer, senior struggling with college application, cereal killer, coffee addict, food lover, late night worker and most importantly iGEMer. Spending my time in lab and being the leader for the human practice section has made this summer more complete and fulfilled, whereas I would normally just be a couch potato.
Favorite iGEM moment: When the entire hallway smells like LB

Xinbo Yu

Year: Senior
Learning biology has always been a delight for me, from the smallest of glycoproteins to the most complex of the 37 trillion cells that define us as a functioning human being. The practicality of the subject and the unknown potential that the field has makes it a subject that will affect the lives of future generations. In my free time I also enjoy shadowing physicians and experiencing the careers that interest me first hand with the opportunities given and maintaining my own financial portfolio.
Favorite iGEM moment: The time spent with the team and the many arguments and discussions made us feel more like a family than just students.

Sonia Chang

Year: Senior
Born in Taiwan, I have lived in Shanghai and studied at SHSID for more than half of my life. As a fervent thespian, theater has been the center of my high school life for the past five years. I enjoy every moment working either onstage or backstage as an actress, stage manager, or student director. These experiences in theater have fostered my love of collaborating with large groups of people and presenting unique, creative ideas onstage. At the same time, I have a wide variety of interests including music, Japanese language and culture, films, and medicine.
Favorite iGEM moment: My favorite iGEM moment belongs to the CCiC our team attended during this summer.

Ping-an (Andy) Chen

Year: Senior
As one of the only students who did not take courses in chemistry or biology, I am not a huge fan of labs. Instead, I enjoy the more business and economic side of our project. Being an econ student does not mean that I spend hours a day watching CNBC or reading the textbook. Instead, I explore my economic and business interests through sneaker hunting. Aside from sneaker hunting, I like to keep my life on low power mode.
Favorite iGEM moment: When I heard someone took a shower in the labatory.
